Tottenham manhandled Crystal Palace and ran out 3-0 winners in Antonio Cont’e most comfortable match since being appointed gaffer.

Five calamitous minutes from the away side gave Spurs all they needed to coast to another important three points. Lucas Moura and Harry Kane combined on a lightning-quick counter for Spurs opener, which was followed in short succession by Moura’s close-range header. Moura’s goal was Tottenham’s first headed goal of the campaign. Wilfried Zaha, who lashed out at Davinson Sanchez, was back to his petulant worst and given his marching orders by referee Jonathan Moss.

Spurs had their way with Palace thereafter and strolled to their fourth victory in the last five top flight matches.

Here’s the player ratings from a relatively untroubled afternoon in north London.
